Martin Panter added the comment: The user can access pipes and close them directly, or keep their own reference. I don’t think detach() should touch pipes, and __exit__() should probably continue to close them. Maybe call the method detach_pid() if that makes it clearer that pipes are unaffected.
For the Windows process handle, I suggest detach() should close it. I believe this would make Windows work like Unix when you set SIGCHLD to automatically reap children. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27068> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
